We want to have 2-3 STRs in 3 years ideally.

Ideally this can be done at a reasonable cost and results in significantly more value than the cost.  

Which would ideally allow for forced appreciation and a lower mortgage payment so potentially better cashflow if you can rent it for the same amount.

Then proceed to give the tenant notice via voice-mail, e-mail, text, etc that you will be inspecting the unit 24-Hours after said notice.

Ideally I would like to bring my handyman over to walk the inside of the property and get his thoughts since he would be better at estimating repair/reno costs than I.I will be getting a HM loan and would like some input on what you think good terms/rates would be for someone who is new to HM lending. 

I ideally I would love to get 50-100 doors with a few investors who would like to build a great relationship based on trust, commitment and personal growth.

It seems like a simple enough investment vehicle with the potential for some great returns with relative low risk and not an extremely high learning curve.Is there anyone on here who has experience with this kind of r/e investing?

@Donald E Appleberry Thanks for the feedback.

It's close by and I actually have plenty of family in the area; so it's an ideal area for me.
